Brazil starlet Lucas set for PSG debut

Brazilian international midfielder Lucas Moura is all set to make his debut for Paris Saint-Germain in a friendly in Qatar, the French club announced on Monday.

Lucas, 20, signed from Sao Paulo in the summer on a four-and-a-half-year deal, PSG beating off competition from the likes of Manchester United and Real Madrid to snare a player hailed as one of the future guiding lights of the Brazilian team.

The Brazilian, who has touched down in Qatar to join his new teammates at a training camp, could make his debut in a friendly against Qatari champions Lekhwiya on Wednesday, four days before PSG's French Cup round-of-64 match against Arras in Calais on January 6.
